Description

NHS West Lancashire CCG has been reviewing commissioning options for Integrated Community Services for some time. Following a number of visioning events in June 2014, where more than 100 stakeholders contributed, the CCG developed a long term vision for integrated community services which is underpinned by a robust clinical commissioning strategy: "Building for the future - a clinical commissioning strategy" to support the delivery of integrated adult community health services.

The objectives of this strategy are to ensure that our commissioned services are:

• Integrated, responsive and delivered according to patient / population need, in partnership with others
• Proactively engaged in community asset building and development
• Effective in preventing illness and promoting self-care, health and wellbeing
• Focused on improving patient experience and quality of care
• Clinically led in planning and delivery
• Providing high clinical quality through excellent clinical leadership and governance
• Aligned to avoiding unplanned admission to acute care
• Effective in facilitating early, safe transfers of care

In order to explore opportunities in more detail, the CCG seek views from suppliers about proposals through the attached RFI and from a Supplier Event to be held on the 30th September 2015.
This RFI is open for responses until 9th October 2015.
